After the number of more than 300,000 ghouls outside the Blood Gate was assembled, the Arryn Valley began an unprecedentedly difficult battle.

Five months flew by.

The pale golden holy light shines on the fortifications, and the transcendents fight desperately, but the valley people still can't stop the terrifying offensive of the army of the dead, and they have retreated from the blood gate to the Long Heaven Castle, and all the survivors in the Arryn Valley are crowded in the Eagle's Nest City, and even the heavenly prison has been transformed into a room full of people.

Put your hope in God.

Even the existence of Laherlo, the Lord of Light, is not ethereal.

In the actual war situation, after all, I still responded to the sentence that it is better to ask for others than to ask for myself!

With the large barns in the Eagle's Nest City, which are not inferior to the big cities, the food can barely hold on, but when the Blood Gate is breached and everyone retreats to the Dangerous Rock Fort, the fleet of Dorne's reinforcements set off for the north, and when they approach the coast of the valley, there is no way to support the Eagle's Nest City in the high mountains.

In the end, Dorne's reinforcements had no choice but to move to the shores of the Vale of Arryn, asking the dragons to help deliver supplies and take a small number of soldiers with them at a time.

In order to survive.

Everything served the war, and all did it to the limit.

During the five months of defeat, Arthur tried to make gunpowder and muskets in Eagle's Nest City, but due to the backwardness of the times and the lack of materials, he scraped the dung pit to make that bit of nitrate, and all of it was made into gunpowder and used directly.

The imaginary volley of artillery fire, the volley of muskets, cannot be realized in such a precarious day!

Looking back, Arthur really regretted why he didn't build a large industrial area and open a military factory when he was in King's Landing.

Daenerys, Ryan, Varian, Stannis and others who had traveled to Essos had returned from Braavos, with meteorites and Valyrian steel.

In fact, their negotiations with the Iron Treasury were very unsmooth.

If it weren't for Melisandre contacting the Church of Lachlo, asking the High Priest to take Mitsuna's gold and jewels, pay them to the Iron Vault as a deposit, and then sign the Braavos Sea Trade Duty Free Contract, Daenerys and Ryan would not have been able to take away the extraterrestrial meteorite and Valyrian steel at all!

Know the crisis in Westeros.

The Essos want all Westeros to be exterminated so that they can take over all of Sunset Realm when winter is over and the Wraiths and ghouls are gone!

However.

The Lahlo church is not to be messed with!

Their red-robed priests master divine arts!

You can summon a true god to descend!

Even the iron coffers that control the world's economy are fearful of the Church of Lahlo.

Fortunately, the transcendent are still mortals who master all kinds of powers, and they are not invincible, and they can recruit transcendental beings who also possess extraordinary powers to deal with them.

But it can fly, it can breathe fire, and the scales are so hard that it can destroy cities, and no amount of transcendent people can deal with it.

Not to mention God!

Therefore, the Iron Vault, under the threat of gods and dragons, finally agreed to sell the meteorite and Valyrian steel.

Five months have passed.

The dark realms that occupy the north of Westeros have expanded to the north of the Eagle's Nest.

Appear over the Narrow Sea!

Although the darkness did not continue to swallow south, the situation was already very critical.

However, even so, Robert, Ryan, Varian, Stannis, and others, because they had obtained the Extraterrestrial Meteorite and Valyrian Steel, wanted to forge the Lightbringer of the oracle, and in addition to taking turns in defensive battles, they only cared about hammering iron every day......

Allied Cersei.

He has not fulfilled his promise and the duty of an ally!

When Jaime Lannister led the Golden Regiment to approach the Vale, he was tied up by the Golden Regiment's leader, Harry Stryclan, before he could give the order, ignoring the allies who rode the dragon to answer him, and finally lost the door because of their inaction.

Now, the Golden Regiment has moved away from the battlefield to bring the Kingkiller back to his twin sister.

Soldiers and civilians in the Arryn Valley.

And Arthur, they still have to rely on themselves!

Therefore, Arthur really regretted that he did not find a place to develop himself......

It's too late to say anything.

Listening to the horn of winter that was blown, feeling the condensation and bombardment of ice magic, the resurrected dead who tried to climb to the top of the Bright Moon Mountain Range were suddenly knocked away.

Cast a buffed Holy Light skill to activate the Aura of Strength.

Arthur, who drew his sword, did not know how many times he was at the forefront of the fight against strangers and ghouls, dancing with sweat and emitting golden light, and the blade of burning flames would move the corpses to slash and slash them, meet the blue ice blades, and protect everyone around and behind him.

"Your Highness, please go and rest, just leave it to us here. ”

Face the daily onslaught of the army of the dead.

As the most important combat force, the prince gives everyone the holy light gain and protection, and Gawain really doesn't want his highness to be too tired.

"Don't take it lightly. ”

Although the ghouls can be strengthened with a single sword, and they can be cut by the enchanted sword, Arthur will not let everyone be careless.

"You hold the defense line of the Long Sky Fort, and I'll go to the sides and the rear to take a look. ”

"Your Highness, I'll go with you. ”

Annie, Selena, Nymeria, Gawain, Lancelot, Ranmarok and others all opened their mouths to ask for help.

Arthur shook his head: "Gawain, Lancelot stay, Anne, Ranmarlock, you come with me." ”

Located at the top of the Bright Moon Mountain Range, the Eagle's Nest City has no fortifications on either side or behind except for the front Moon Gate, Dangerous Rock Fort, Snow Mountain Fort and Changtian Fort.

And the ghouls are tireless, wading through mountains and rivers to ignore the terrain, and can climb the Bright Moon Mountain Range!

They must check the sides and rear of the Eagle's Nest and eliminate the resurrected dead who try to climb close to the castle.

Five months have passed.

The Eagle's Nest City has run out of rolling stones and sassal wood to defend the city.

To deal with these ghouls, because of the shortage of arrows, the soldiers can't carry out long-range attacks, and before they get close, swords and spears can't deal with them, so Arthur, Gianna and others who have mastered holy light and magic are the most important main outputs.

However.

Arthur, Gianna, Ambrosius, and Malwyn, no matter how powerful they are, are still mortals after all.

Even dragons that are legendary magical creatures.

In the face of tens of thousands, seemingly endless resurrection of the dead, the transcendent exhausted the holy light, magic and mana in their bodies, the dragons exhausted their physical strength, and countless ghouls continued to attack.

There are too many of them.

So much so that most of the people who hid in Eagle's Nest City were already desperate!

But no matter how bad the war was, after five months of hard fighting day and night, Arthur and the others never had the idea of giving up.

Except that there is no way back.

They still have hope of victory!

"Ding~" "Ding~" "Ding~"

In the Eagle's Nest City, the garden surrounded by towers has been completely transformed into a swordsmithing workshop at this time.

The art of making Valyrian steel was lost in the aftermath of the Catastrophe in Ancient Valyria and was forged by no ordinary weaponsmith.

In order to forge the Lightbringer, Robert, Lane, Varian, Daenerys, Stannis, Melisandre and others went to King's Landing to bring Tob Mott, who had the ability to melt the Stark family's inherited Valyrian steel sword and reforge the Widow's Howl and Oath Guardian Sword, to work in Eagle's Nest.

In Steel Street, Ryan and Varian also meet Gendry, who once had a relationship.

Gendry suddenly saw the red-robed woman who had captured him and almost burned him as a sacrifice, and Robert's bastard immediately picked up the hammer and wanted to take revenge.

Neither Robert, Ryan, Varian, Stannis, nor Barristan, nor Daenerys, the Dragon Queen with Jorah, Jon, and the Grey Bug, would watch Gendry kill the vital Priestess of the Red God in front of them.

There was only a brute force, and the blacksmith, who had not experienced any life-and-death battles, was subdued in the blink of an eye.

Melisandre also quickly recognized that the blacksmith who tried to attack her was the illegitimate son who was almost sacrificed by herself during the War of the Five Kings.

Considering that he was a blacksmith, Robert's bastard, or a disciple of Tob Mott, the red-robed woman immediately guessed that this might be the guidance of the Lord of Light, so that the master blacksmith and the bastard disciples with dragon blood could help everyone forge the Lightbringer!

So, Gendry came to the dangerous city of Eagle's Nest.

As if inspired by fate, together with the blacksmith master, sweat like rain every day to forge the legendary hero's red sword!

The temperature of terror.

The ground in the Eagle's Nest Garden is dry and cracked, without a single snowflake, and even the cold air can't invade, and the surrounding towers feel stuffy because of it!

The sword has been formed under more than a dozen broken hammers.

The red blade is like a flame, only the cooldown and the opening edge remain, and a legendary hero's lightbringer can truly appear!

"No, this temperature is terrifying, and it can't be cooled with water. ”

Looking at the sword blank like a small sun, Tob Mott, a sweaty weapon forging master, frowned, not knowing how to finish the sword.

Melisandre, who has been involved in forging swords and instilling strength in the Lightbringers, said, "We can be inspired by the fact that Azar Ahai used his wife's life, blood, soul, strength, and courage to forge swords!"

"Sacrifice your life?"

Hearing the words of the red-robed woman, knowing that she tricked Stannis into burning her daughter, Ryan, Varian and the others were full of disgust.

Robert said coldly, "I can't do such a thing. ”

Daenerys, who helped add dragon blood to the sword, is an idealist and can't see anything happen that sacrifices other people's lives.

"Is there no other way?"

Ryan said, "We don't have a wife to sacrifice yet. ”

The red-robed woman who heard the words shook her head: "Your Majesty, Your Highness, Your Excellency, Yasuor Yahai is Yasuor Yahai, we are us, different eras, although there are many similarities, but if it is not Asuor Yahai reborn, even if he sacrifices his wife's life, he cannot be cast into a messenger of light." ”

Robb looked at the Prince of Dragonstone, "So, our hero is Prince Stannis?"

"No!"

Melisandre had always believed that Stannis was the rebirth of Atholl Ahai, but Penelope, who was also a priestess of the Red God, had always objected: "I don't think so. ”

"The ancient book of Asha prophesied that after the long summer, when the stars wept blood, Azor Ahai would be reborn in the land of smoke and salt, and awaken the dragon in the stone. ”

"Prince Stannis didn't wake up the dragon in the stone. ”

"So he's definitely not Azar Ahai reborn!"

"Who's that?" Melisandre frowned, "Do you think it's Queen Daenerys who hatched dragons?" Don't forget that the prophesied one who can defend against the ancient gods is a prince, not a queen or princess!"

There is no point in ripping off.

Seeing that the two priestesses were about to quarrel, Ryan hurriedly said, "Everyone, we should now discuss how to fulfill the Lightbringer, not the prophecy. ”

Melisandre said in a deep voice, "But if we don't know who is the reborn of Azar Ahai, the prince of prophecy, we will not be able to complete the Lightbringer." ”

"Well, I want to remind you that Uncle Stannis no longer has a wife to sacrifice. ”

Hearing this, Varian couldn't help but remind.

Melisandre: "I'm just saying that Azar Ahai's sacrifice of his wife to complete the Lightbringer is a revelation, not necessarily a sacrifice of his wife. ”

"What does the story of Azor Ahai teach you?" Stannis asked.

"Perhaps, we can sacrifice the prince's daughter. ”

"What did you say?!"

Hearing the words of the red-robed woman, Robert, Ryan, Varian, Daenerys, Robb and others all became angry, the girl who was born with gray scale disease was pitiful enough.

finally picked up a life, but he wanted to hurt her again?

However, Melisandre gave an irrefutable reason: "Princess Shireen, with dragon blood in her body and nourished by the Light, is the most suitable candidate to cool the Lightbringer. ”

"For the sake of Westeros, for the sake of all humanity, we have to. ”

Penelope: "However, if Prince Stannis had not been reborn by Atholl Ahai, and had not been a hero who could hold the Lightbringer, then Princess Shireen would have died in vain, and the sword blank we had worked so hard to forge for so many days would have shattered." ”

Melisandre was immediately annoyed by Penelope's insistence.

"You doubt the will of the Lord of Light?"

"You misunderstood the will of the Lord of Light. ”

Looking at the two priestesses facing each other, Robert, Ryan, Varian, Daenerys, and Stannis all felt very headaches.

I finally got the sword ready.

It only takes two steps to cool down and strike.

Unexpectedly, Melisandre and Penelope would have a dispute at this critical juncture because of the sword-wielding hero in the prophecy.

At this time, the mana is exhausted in battle.

Because of his old arms and legs, he couldn't cut down the ghouls, and when he returned to the castle to rest and recover his mana, Dr. Malwyn came to the garden to inquire about the lightbringer.

Seeing the two Red God priestesses arguing, and Robert, Ryan, Varian, Daenerys and the others frowned, all of them looked thoughtful, and they didn't mean to stop it.

Malvinne asked Daenerys, "Your Majesty, is there something wrong with the Lightbringer?"

The Dragon Queen shook her head: "No." ”

Magician Scholar: "Then why did they quarrel?"

"Because of the prophecy. Robb Stark immediately explained the ins and outs to the Dragon Queen's maestro.

Hearing this, Malvin suddenly fell into a thoughtful state, and then muttered: "So, the prince in the prophecy is Azor Ahai who is reborn and can use the Lightbringer to drive away the darkness?"

Robb nodded: "Yes." ”

"Huh. Receiving an affirmative answer, Malwyn suddenly smiled deeply, "Then their quarrel is pointless." ”

Ryan: "Why did the Doctor say that?"

The magician Marvin asked rhetorically without answering, "Does Your Highness want a lightbringer who can destroy the ghosts, drive away the darkness, and help the Lord of Light end this war?"

...... To be continued......
